What Women Want: The Hair They Don’t Have

My hair is a long, shiny, sleek black. The kind that always looks lush and freshly shampooed. Strangers have stopped me in the street asking how I get my hair to look the way it does. As you know from The Secret Art of Sex Goddess Hair, I don’t just roll out of bed with perfect hair. It takes effort. And hairspray.

Unfortunately, hairspray is no match against Mother Nature. I was recently caught in a thunderstorm with two of my dearest friends, Anjali and Linh. We were in New Jersey (don’t ask why…), running through the torrential rain, our umbrellas being turned inside-out by the wind. We arrived at the fancy Chart House restaurant looking like drowned rats.

If it isn’t yet obvious, I’ve always wanted big, beautiful curls. My friends have joked that I have a thing for men with wavy hair; a quest to improve my genes and produce wavy-haired kids, they say. Watch these future kids stare longingly at my straight locks and wonder what possessed their crazy mother to have such a thought.

hahahahaha! ooh so true! whats up with that??? thx for the beautiful reminder for me to be more appreciative of my hair :P (even though im still dying for the kind “that always looks lush and freshly shampooed” hahaha)

SO TRUE. love that you have captured a truth about women. even when we are confident in our own skin there are still little things we wish we had. i have big curls. and i really love them. but of course, sometimes when bad weather i wish they dried perfectly straight and flat so i dont have to worry about them being so messy!

The post that started it all: The Secret Art of Sex Goddess Hair

Once upon a time, little Sara used to draw...then she grew up and became concerned with more important matters... Somewhere along the way, not-so-little-anymore Sara decided to be happy. And so, this comic blog was born . . .
